Hi there! I hope there’s enough lurkers to get some interesting ideas here.

I just came back to the game after a year or so. I’m not really in the mood for combat at the moment so I decided to take a stab at a pacifist character for a change.

Right now I’m just traveling randomly, taking screenshots and looking for quests that can be completed without combat (even through cheesing, I’ll take what I can get). While fun, this approach means I’m probably missing things obvious to more active players so I was wondering if anyone has any fun non-combat activities to share.

The only DLC I have are Morrowind and Murkmire but I’d be interested in things available in any other expansions as well.

    Fishing is entertaining for a little while, especially if you have Sharp-as-Night. His comments for that are great.

    Crafting & building out houses is also a good time if you like that type of thing. And there is the new Housing Tour option, so you can show off your designs.

      Fishing is one of the first things I did after coming back actually. I don’t think I touched it before so it was a nice way to use some of the bait I’ve accumulated until now. Still need to get into housing though, all I have is a basic setup in one of the inn rooms. Thanks for the ideas!

        Snugpod is cheap and close to the action for both Undaunted Enclave and Rolis (Master Writs), I use Deshan / Mournhold to quickly get to Fighters Guild and Mages Guild. I saw this in someone else’s Snugpod, so I cannot claim credit, but you can get much more usable space there if you put in the Clockwork Spiral Stair to make it effectively 2 levels. Here is a youtube video I found about getting all the Inn Rooms and the Lunar Champ home (if you have ESO plus or the Elsweyr DLC)

          That’s some good info. One of the reasons I stuck to the inn was that I found many house interior lacking, tips like this might push me to finally take a plunge. Thanks again!
